A Target shopper demanded “reparations” from her local store – in the form of $1,000 worth of groceries – and got punched in the face instead.
The incident took place last October in Blue Ash, Ohio, but video of the incident only began circulating last week. The shopper, a black woman who was reportedly identified as Karen Ivery, first told her cashier that she was entitled to reparations that would cover the cost of her purchases — and then demanded to see the manager. When the manager approached, Ivery continued to demand “reparations,” shouting at the manager aggressively and eventually backing her into the cafe at the front of the store.

Ohio Woman demands her bill at Target is paid via 'Reparations' chases manager, gets punched in the face instead 😭
In the video that was shared on Twitter, police bodycam footage showed the aftermath of the confrontation along with several clips from the store’s surveillance cameras that had caught the skirmish on tape, albeit without sound.
According to a police report reviewed by The New York Post, as soon as the manager approached, Ivery began to shout at her. “Ivery kept berating her about reparations and her privileged life,” the report alleged.
Zach Cotter, a store loss-prevention officer, intervened when Ivery backed the manager into the store’s cafe — and she turned on him, aggressively approaching as he backed into a nearby security office. He tried to close the door once he got into the office, but Ivery pushed her way in and continued to shout at him. Backed into a corner in the office, Cotter punched Ivery in the face, knocking her to the ground.
When police came in, Cotter explained what had happened and then police asked Ivery whether or not she was all right. In a low voice, she said that she was physically fine but emotionally she was “very angry.”
Full video showed Ivery talking to police officers in the security office, explaining that she had only demanded reparations and “help from her community.” She also wanted the manager to comp her purchase and then “have a larger conversation about how money works, and how the provision works, and how it’s been working in our community in a very wrong way.”
She went on to say that when it became clear that Target was not willing to meet her demands, she had decided to “take a stand.”
“This is my Rosa Parks moment, dude,” she said to the police officer. “Don’t play with me.”
Police officers determined, according to the final report, that Ivery had been the aggressor — a position she took offense to during their interview.
She continued to claim that she had just “held the line” while everyone else used money to try to keep her and other good people out — and she tried to bring the police officer over to her side by claiming she believed he didn’t get paid enough either.

Kareniqua
The Democrats have made an entire race insane.
lol, perfect
She very much deserved what happened. And Rosa Parks...Rosa sat on a bus and wasn’t aggressive. Just the opposite of what happened here.
That was the LBJ plan all along........................
I’m sorry Ma’am.. Your Reparations card seems to have been declined. And your RaceCard appears to be overdrafted as well..
Do you have anything else, maybe a visa or Amex?
This country is rapidly becoming unfit for human habitation. The Mau-mau strikes again.
I don’t recall Rosa Parks demanding free stuff.
Me neither.
The demonrats ARE insane!
Within six months, she will move into a 2 million dollar home with an oversized garage for her new S-680 Maybach and 924 BMW...
Someone does owe reparations in that picture but it’s not the officer. American blacks are the most indulged, coddled and thereby stunted people on the planet.
“Don’t play with me.”
I’ll be willing to bet 2 cases of Bud Lite against $2.00 that she did not say exactly that.
She ain’t gonna’ get a penny.
